  1. Engineering Technology By: Greg Zoffel

  2. “Researchers Are experimenting with smudge free surfaces by applying candle soot to them.”- The technology review Smudge free surfaces

  3. Researchers held a slide of glass underneath a candle flame to cover it with soot and then applied a silica to the glass baked it at 600 degrees How this Technology works

  4. A protective coating made of soot and silica that repels oils from glass and other surfaces Results of this experiment

  5. “This is important because cell phones, glasses, and turbines can all benefit from oils and other liquids sticking to them.”- The technology review Why is this important?

  6. The new ipad has a smudge free surface. • The phone case the elago has a smudge free surface that repels finger prints and other oils. Current examples of this

  7. Applying the soot is cheap but the methods for applying it is expensive. Researchers experimenting on applying it cheaper.- The technology review • New smart phones, glasses , and other technology can benefit from this also. What’s next?

  8. Researchers are experimenting with smudge free surfaces By applying candle soot to them and heating them up to 600 degrees and the soot becomes transparent and the surface repels oils and issmudge free Summary
